The Polline Martignano area is the only territorial exclave of the Municipality of Rome, isolated between the municipalities of Anguillara Sabazia, Campagnano di Roma, and Trevignano Romano, bordered by Lake Martignano and Lake Bracciano. In ancient times, in addition to Lacus Sabatinus (Lake Bracciano) and Lacus Alsietinus (Lake Martignano), there was also Lacus Papyrianus (Lake Stracciacappa), now dried out, and whose dried-up bed is still recognizable. In the Middle Ages, the village of Stirpe Cappe arose in this area, strategically located on the Via Cassia. Today, only the 12th-century Stirpa Cappe Tower remains. The Casale di Martignano, however, dates back to the 15th century. Starting from the sensory garden, where you can refill your water bottle, you climb up the unpaved municipal road. The road runs between the two lakes: Bracciano on the left and Martignano on the right, but you will have to travel a few kilometers to reach Via Polline.

🌋 Stracciacappa Lake: Traces of a Volcanic Past In the heart of the Bracciano-Martignano Regional Natural Park, near Campagnano di Roma, lies the ancient basin of Stracciacappa Lake. Once similar to Lakes Bracciano and Martignano, this volcanic lake was drained in the 19th century by a canal. Today, its basin is cultivated and surrounded by pastures, yet it retains its charm intact. Watching over this peaceful landscape is the Stracciacappa Tower, an 11th-century medieval building that dominates the promontory. It's an unmissable vantage point for those who love cycling through history and nature.
